Well, as you can see I have not posted anything on my blog in a very long time. I ended up with three jobs and a crazy schedule and those darn woolies take up a lot of time. Finally I am getting a break in my hectic life and will be down to one job. My home based business will allow me more free time to be with my sheep, crafts, cooking, hobbies, and of course, blogging.

Just to give you an update, I sold off my Navajo Churros and moved into a few breeds that had finer wool. We moved to a beautiful new place for boarding and the sheep are delighted! I started sheep shearing as a side job and I will continue to do that every spring until my body finally says no more. These next weeks I will start all over, introduce all the new wooly faces, show you what I’ve been up to this summer and start the blog from scratch again.

I am really excited for this new phase in my life and in September when things finally get rolling, there will be a lot more activity here.

I am a former Montana farm girl now living in the city. I am a fiber artist,spinner and weaver. As the old saying goes, you can take the girl off the farm, but you can't take the farm out of the girl. Even though I live in the city, I am experimenting with alternatives that will allow me to practice homesteading skills and learn traditional skills as a suburban house wife. I believe we can all make our lives more simple, eco-friendly and self-sufficient no matter where we live. Follow my adventures as I learn, practice, succeed and fail in things like: canning, raising small farm animals like sheep and rabbits, weaving and spinning wool, hunting, tanning, gardening, sewing, crafting, making cheese and other dairy products, and anything else I get a wild hair to learn.
